Surfdog's 09 journal
After an ocean of due diligence and troubleshooting it turns out the cam noise I have is due IPPs heads having a valve lash issue. Not cool on brand new heads.
The valve lash is pretty bad. I can’t run the motor this way.
I have troubleshot all I can and had my suspicions verified by my go to guy at a Nissan dealer nearby. (I know I know but the guy is good and also a friend)
Next step is to tear down the heads and reset up the lash with proper valve caps. It’s about 15 hours labor.
I’m not too happy with IPP.
On the plus side I can now retrofit in my JWT c2 cams.
